"Die!!"
Deputy Commander Gaia, the Jonin renowned for his swordsmanship, Lightning Style, and Teleportation Jutsu, had already used his terrifying speed to reach Shinichi's blind spot from behind!
The broad blade in his hand was now infused with a massive amount of lightning chakra, completely wrapped in dazzling blue-white lightning that crackled violently. With a full-force strike, he slashed down toward Shinichi's unguarded neck and head!
Timing! Angle! Power! All perfect!
Shinichi's senses had already detected the threat behind him, and he caught a glimpse of the blazing lightning blade out of the corner of his eye.
Just as he was about to make a move...
At that mont, the Flying Thunder God Kunai at his waist suddenly trembled very slightly, emitting a faint glow!
The next mont…
Whoosh!
A golden figure appeared instantly behind Shinichi as if born directly from nothingness, without the slightest warning, perfectly positioned between Shinichi and Gaia's descending blade!
Minato Namikaze!
His timing was so precise it was chilling, as if he had already predicted every move Gaia would make. In his hand, he held a Flying Thunder God Kunai in a reverse grip, its tip condensed with highly compressed cyan wind-nature chakra that emitted a sharp whistling sound!
The mont Minato appeared, his attack had already begun. The kunai in his hand beca a blur invisible to the naked eye, slicing across Gaia's throat as Gaia, unable to halt his full-power strike, had no chance to evade!
"What?!"
Gaia's pupils shrank sharply. In the final mont of his life, he only had ti to clearly see the newcor's iconic golden hair and cold blue eyes, and then, his head shot into the sky, and scorching blood gushed out like a fountain from his severed neck!
The headless body still maintained its forward slashing posture, stumbling forward two more steps before collapsing heavily to the ground.
"Well done, Shinichi!"
Minato succeeded with a single strike, his figure not pausing in the slightest, not even sparing another glance at the corpse.
At the sa mont his words fell, chakra burst beneath his feet, and his figure retreated at extre speed like a golden phantom, effortlessly evading several Lightning Style Ninjutsu and tool attacks fired from other directions by enemies thrown into shock and rage by their deputy commander's death.
As he retreated, his hands seed to magically produce more than a dozen brand-new Flying Thunder God Kunai from nowhere, which he then unleashed in all directions.
The kunai had just left his hands and was still spinning midair, when a flash of yellow figure began to appear!
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Minato Namikaze's figure started a dazzling sequence of instantaneous flickers across the battlefield!
Each flicker precisely appeared beside a Flying Thunder God Kunai that had just landed or was about to land. Each appearance was accompanied by an attack of extre speed yet absolute lethality, either slicing a throat or piercing a heart!
His movents were pushed to the limit, without any unnecessary actions, only the most concise and efficient killing.
The twenty close-combat elite of the Village Hidden in the Cloud who had followed Gaia in the assault, originally intending to surround and kill Shinichi, had not yet recovered from the shock of their deputy commander being instantly killed, nor had they had ti to reorganize an effective encirclent or defensive formation.
Minato had already passed through them like the scythe of death.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The dull sounds of bodies hitting the ground rged into a single sound.
In the blink of an eye, the twenty Kumogakure elite nijas who had charged in, including deputy commander Gaia, had all beco corpses, their faces still bearing disbelief and confusion.
What an artistic form of killing.
Shinichi sighed inwardly. Compared to his own extrely violent and overwhelming style, Minato's thod was simple yet far more efficient.
"Damn it, it's Minato Namikaze again!"
Commander Diga felt alard and shouted loudly, "It's Minato Namikaze! Execute plan C quickly!
As soon as those words fell, the remaining Kumogakure ninja moved again, rapidly switching into an extrely dispersed hunting formation, spaced far apart from one another and moving quickly in irregular patterns.
Having been repeatedly harassed by Minato Namikaze these past days and paying a considerable price, the Kumogakure ninja had, through blood and tears, been forced to develop so targeted counterasures, the so-called plan C.
However, this so-called plan C rely allowed most of them to die a little slower and struggle a little longer; it could not truly change the outco.
"Be careful, Shinichi!"
Minato left behind those words before disappearing again, his whereabouts unknown.
Shinichi did not concern himself with where Minato went, because at this mont, his own squad mbers had arrived.
It sounded long, but the ti was actually very short.
From Shinichi charging straight into the Kumogakure's formation with a piercing montum, to Minato appearing and instantly harvesting twenty-one Kumogakure ninja, only a few seconds had passed.
Only now did the rest of Shinichi's unit arrive belatedly at the edge of the battlefield.
Three hundred Konoha ninja saw their captain standing alone in the center of the enemy formation, corpses scattered beneath his feet, the Kumogakure's formation in chaos, and morale clearly shaken.
The veteran mbers were unfazed; they were already accustod to their captain's ferocious style of taking the lead to smash the enemy formation and rhythm, creating the best entry opportunity for the main force.
But the newly joined mbers were stunned in shock!
Although they had long heard through rumors and battle reports that Captain Shinichi was extraordinarily powerful despite his youth, witnessing with their own eyes his single-handed charge into hundreds of Kumogakure elites, throwing them into complete disarray and causing heavy casualties, still delivered a trendous impact.
"Attack!"
"Support the captain!"
The three hundred mbers of Shinichi's unit surged forward toward the already chaotic Village Hidden in the Cloud flank, quickly clashing with the enemy's outer forces!
At this mont, Shinichi also moved again!
He raised his Adamantine Nyoil again, and his figure shot out like a cannonball, with more than a dozen Shadow Clones around him, especially the two Shadow Clones holding the Blade of the Thunder Spirit and the Flowing Cloud Sword following closely behind.
With the help of external teammates, both sides worked together to severely damage, or even completely destroy, the third Raikage's spear shaft!
Rumble!
At the sa ti, the sudden commotion from the rear finally caught the attention of the third Raikage, who was leading two hundred Kumogakure ninjas in the charge.
The third Raikage looked back. He had thought it was that extrely troubleso and slippery Minato Namikaze again, but instead, he saw soone unexpected.
anwhile, at another end of the battlefield, Shinichi, who had just swept three Kumogakure ninja attempting to form hand seals, flying with a horizontal strike of the Adamantine Nyoi, happened to turn his head back.
Across several thousand ters, amid the sea of people and chaotic flas of war, their gazes t precisely!
It's Shinichi Higashino!
The one who killed B!
The third Raikage's eyes suddenly sharpened! The Lightning Style Armour around him surged even more violently, crackling with scalp-numbing explosive sounds!
